Guidelines for the use and interpretation of assays for monitoring autophagy (3rd edition)

Daniel J. Klionsky, +2522 more
- 21 Jan 2016 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a set of guidelines for the selection and interpretation of methods for use by investigators who aim to examine macro-autophagy and related processes, as well as for reviewers who need to provide realistic and reasonable critiques of papers that are focused on these processes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Beneficial effects of antioxidants in diabetes: possible protection of pancreatic beta-cells against glucose toxicity.

Hideaki Kaneto, +9 more
- 01 Dec 1999 - 
TL;DR: Observations indicate that antioxidant treatment can exert beneficial effects in diabetes, with preservation of in vivo beta- cell function, and provides further support for the implication of oxidative stress in beta-cell dysfunction in diabetes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Two Signals Are Necessary for Cell Proliferation Induced by a Cytokine Receptor gp130: Involvement of STAT3 in Anti-Apoptosis

Toshiyuki Fukada, +7 more
- 01 Nov 1996 - 
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that two distinct signals, mitogenesis and anti-apoptosis, are required for gp130-induced cell growth and that STAT3 is involved in anti-APoptosis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Autophagy is important in islet homeostasis and compensatory increase of beta cell mass in response to high-fat diet

Chie Ebato, +14 more
- 08 Oct 2008 - 
TL;DR: Upregulation of autophagosome formation in pancreatic beta cells in diabetic db/db and in nondiabetic high-fat-fed C57BL/6 mice suggests that basal autophagy is important for maintenance of normal islet architecture and function.
Journal ArticleDOI

Serotonin regulates pancreatic beta cell mass during pregnancy.

Hail Kim, +19 more
- 01 Jul 2010 - 
TL;DR: An integrated signaling pathway linking beta cell mass to anticipated insulin need during pregnancy is revealed and modulators of this pathway, including medications and diet, may affect the risk of gestational diabetes.
